What is the Cognitive Science
Journal?Cognitive Science is the official journal
of the Cognitive
Science Society. The academic discipline of Cognitive
Science unites researchers from many different fields
who hold a common goal: understanding the nature of the
human mind. The Society promotes scientific interchange
among researchers in disciplines comprising the field
of Cognitive Science, including Artificial Intelligence,
Linguistics, Anthropology, Psychology, Neuroscience, Philosophy,
and Education.

Why are you offering this archive
online?

The basic idea behind this archive is to make some true
treasures of Cognitive Science research widely available.
Nowadays, the ease of information access can determine
the impact of a publication. Articles that are not easily
accessible are often not read or not cited, and sometimes
ignored and forgotten. As authors want their work to be
noticed we hope to act in their best interest by offering
these articles to a world-wide audience.

Unfortunately, we do not yet have electronic versions of
all years and issues of Cognitive
Science. Specifically, we are missing all articles
published prior to 1980 and in 1981, as well as the following
journal issues: 1983 (1), 1984 (1), 1987 (1), 1993 (1 &
3), and 1998 (2). [The current issues of the journal are
available on LEA
online.]

This archive is a work in progress and we hope to close
its gaps in the near future. If you are able to contribute
to its contents, please send electronic versions of missing
materials to Ryan
Hope. We're grateful for any comments, corrections and
suggestions!
